A firm with market power faces the demand function, q = 150 - 10P. The firm's marginal cost function is MC(q) = 2 + 0.1q. If the firm establishes a block-pricing structure with two prices, the lower price that the firm will use to maximize producer surplus is $____.

A firm's total cost function is given by TC(q) = 500q + 0.1q^2, where q represents the quantity produced. The marginal cost function for this firm is:

Consider two identical firms (firm 1 and firm 2) that face a linear market demand curve. Each firm has a marginal cost of zero, and the two firms together face demand: P = 150 - 0.25Q, where Q = Q1 + Q2. Find the Cournot equilibrium quantity and market price for each firm. (10)

The xyz corporation is a monopolist in the market for widgets. It's cost function is C = 150 + 2Q^2 and it faces a demand curve of P = 1260 - 5Q. If the firm behaved like a perfectly competitive firm, what would its output and price be?
